By “beginning,” we mean that the content already on our site is useful for beginning musicians. Since our curriculum is the only instructional material our teachers use in our private lesson, our private lessons are only be useful for beginning musicians. By following our instructor’s guidance, the beginning curriculum and private lessons will provide enough content for much more than 48 weeks of lessons. And don’t worry! Our intermediate and advanced curriculum are already designed and all sheet music is composed – we just need to produce video tutorials. Then, we’ll create a curriculum for professionals and expand into other genres of music.

About the Author: Jake Douglass
As a teacher and educator, I possess a unique background having studied music, psychology, neuroscience, and yoga. This synergistic education has provided a well-rounded and experiential understanding of how humans acquire and integrate knowledge.In terms of my personal musical journey, I started playing flute at age 4, moved to piano, then to alto saxophone before finding my passion in drums and percussion. Playing music begets a transcendent presence that can only be experienced through a deep mind, body, and spirit connection, making learning an instrument an ideal catalyst for growth. That is the simple truth that drives me and the primary gift I want to impart to others.With Practicing Musician, I am creating truly equitable access to world-class music education so every child has the opportunity to participate in a music program that speaks to their specific expressive needs and expands their aesthetic sensibilities.
